This is why negotiations with countries like Iran cease and it comes to war. You are absolute on your stance and instead of taking responsibility for
your own actions you blame everybody else.

No, it ceases when a country stands up for what it believes are unfair sanctions. Ask Japan. It ended badly for them as it would for Iran, but, why
don't you try cornering a wild animal and see what happens?

That you hate the U.S. for possessing nuclear weapons, when it created that technology forever ago, and are propping up Iran's right to build nuclear
bombs in 2012 for "peaceful purposes" when it sits on nothing but oil, is ridiculous and doesnt even warrant a well thought out response

Where have I said I hate the US? I don't agree with them holding Iran to the NPT when they themselves won't follow it to the letter, but Israel
isn't even a signor of the NPT and no one does nothing to them. North Korea withdrew itself as a signatory and nothing. If Iran wants a bomb for a
deterrent, then I don't think anyone, especially the US should say anything to them. PS- none of your responses have been well thought out, they
have been conjecture and a regurgitation of MSM and the government.

I'll take your suggestions under advisement.

Challenge accepted.

I will prove your post was hateful by plain logic.

On first page you said:

Just saying.

From early start you implied LIE. Your facts about hateful anti-west first page is based on lie.

What is the truth?
Up to your reply, 8 posts were pro-US and 10 anti-war. I would say honest, it is an even.
You lied that all first page is about hating west.

With your statement you only wanted to spread hate on author of thread, and to all people who are against war with Iran, or against any war policy.
You are warmonger but you don't like to be call that way.

So how can we continue talking when you from first start implied a lie.
How can I regain trust in you?
It is so easy to do the same with all warmongers.

If you can not understand the concept of chivalry, and you treat women as 2nd class citizens, you are TRASH!

If you do not have enough intestinal fortitude to stand up for the female of the species....you are wasting precious oxygen in this environment, and
you should stop doing that.

You were brought into this world by a female. If you can not respect the fact that she did that, please leave this world.

Sorry man but you missed the point. There is no war to free women. Just war to destroy their economy and to take resources. Did you ever heard about
Israel female problems? I never heard US offered help to help woman rights in Iran, Iraq, or others.. Entering in country and destroying cities and
millions of lives won't solve problems.

Do you really think Iranian woman's want to be freed by US or Israel military?
Really man, think about it.
Woman's don't want war. They never want war.
They love more than males and that's why they don't want war.
That's why sex industry is so strong, it is about dominating woman powers.
We are male bastards you know if we look at all males.

I agree that woman is worlds precious treasure, and all glory to them, but war in Iran won't solve woman problems there. It will bring just one more
generation of poor, uneducated and revenge hungry generations.

The study of women in Islam investigates the role of women within the religion of Islam. The complex relationship between women and Islam is
defined by Islamic texts, the history and culture of the Muslim world. The Qur'an states that both men and women are equal, but also, as in 4:34,
that "Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has made one of them to excel the other, and because they spend from their
means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient and guard in the husband's absence what Allah orders them to guard." Although the Quran
does say this, the superiority of men is interpreted in terms of strength by the context - men maintain women.

Due to cultural and not religious beliefs, in some cases, when women have the right to work and are educated, women's job opportunities may in
practice be unequal to those of men. In Egypt for example, women have limited opportunities to work in the private sector because women are still
expected to put their role in the family first, which causes men to be seen as more reliable in the long term.

Culture, not religion.

Read the whole article and follow the links to learn even more. Their culture is different than ours. Their beliefs are different than ours. This
doesn't make them evil. I don't agree with everything they do either, but then I don't live there either.

I am!??!? The only people I hate, and I have stated it before, are war-mongers. So if you are self identifying yourself as that, then yes, I hate
you. Are you trying to tell me that the US or any country for that matter doesn't suppress free speech? Does the US have a massive army that
is bankrupting its country? Does the US have WMD? Where is your proof that Iran does? The IAEA says they don't, your Secretary of Defense says
they don't, Iran says the don't and the ISIS says they don't. Is this just conjecture on your part? I am going to assume that you have sources as
you are arguing this point quite feverishly.

How does Iran differ as a war mongering nation? They went against Iraq - We supplied Iraq for defence. Sure, it got out of hand, but the truth still
stands. Persia has been a war mongering nation for many a century. I dont dissagree that the US isnt, but most of what we've done was out of
protection of ourselves and others.

You can label it an Oil War, but truth is.. those people were getting slaughtered. Which war? all of them!

Even though every war we've been in could be looked at as though it was for war, the underlying truth, even as we seen it (x-army here), people were
getting killed and that had to stop. Tyranny is what we stand against. Sure, we dont have a right to muck around in other countries affairs, but
when it comes to evil dictators, why dont we? I would HOPE that another country steps in should we americans fall under such tyranny. Many of those
people were hoping the same. Dont say they were not.

Don't listen to the other kids in school who in turn listen to their scared parents. Do some critical thinking and research and you will see what
other people see. Please source where Iran wants to wipe out the US.

We dont.. We watch the news, ats, and some of us have been in the thick of it. All research I have done all lead to the same thing.. It comes out of
the horses mouth. Why do you choose, like all the rest of these flaggers, to ignore what comes out of the man's mouth??? Dont you even see the
examples being made there right this moment? Of course you dont, or you wouldnt be saying this.

I don't agree with them having nukes either, but, how can any country with nuclear weapons tell another country not to have them? No country has
used them besides the US thus far. PS- the only reason you entered the second world war was to press sanctions against Japan until it felt it had no
choice but to attack the US...sound familiar? I would say Iran is facing the provocations set against it quite well in not attacking first.

I want to touch on this too..

Think about it this way.

Would you let your 5 year old son walk out the house with a shotgun? Probably not. My father bought us a shotgun when we were very young. We were
not allowed to use it alone untill we grew a few more years. By 12, me and my step brother were hunting on our own. He seen that we were capable due
to the years of trust and the way we carried ourselves.

Some would still dissagree and say that we were still to young. I dissagree, but in the hands of some kids.. Yes! Definatly too young. So, is it
age? Nah, it's how they carry themselves.

Would you trust a country with a nuke that has never had any experiance with even a power plant?

Logical answer is.. Help them build the plant, show them to use it, watch them and assure it's not used to vile means. They do not want this. Why
should we just give them the knowledge when they keep saying over and over again how they want Israel to be obliterated. They say their imam will do
it. They say it should be wiped off the map.

Someone here even said that if Israel was in the US, they would leave it alone... Guess what... Totaly BS.

Argentina JUST captured iranian operatives attempting to blow up temple (2 of them) in their country. Where is Argentina? It sure in the hell isnt
in the middle east. This is why my educated guessing says - Oh Hell No! Why would you give a child a gun? Why would you give an idiot the bomb?

You're joking right? Right?

The war began when Iraq invaded Iran, launching a simultaneous invasion by air and land into Iranian territory on 22 September 1980.

Even though every war we've been in could be looked at as though it was for war, the underlying truth, even as we seen it (x-army here), people were
getting killed and that had to stop. Tyranny is what we stand against. Sure, we dont have a right to muck around in other countries affairs, but when
it comes to evil dictators, why dont we? I would HOPE that another country steps in should we americans fall under such tyranny. Many of those people
were hoping the same. Dont say they were not.

I wouldn't dare say that people don't want evil dictators killing them. That's not what I said. So, why isn't the US going to Darfur (approx.
300,000 civilians killed.), Rwanda (500,000 to 1,000,000 killed), South Africa (racial genocide)? So before you toot the US MSM horn that Iran
is horrible, do some homework.

We dont.. We watch the news, ats, and some of us have been in the thick of it. All research I have done all lead to the same thing.. It comes out of
the horses mouth. Why do you choose, like all the rest of these flaggers, to ignore what comes out of the man's mouth??? Dont you even see the

You obviously don't watch enough news. What exactly has come out of the "man's mouth"? What examples? I am open to other ideas as long as they
make sense and not just a repetition of MSM and the US government's unfounded accusations(Iraq anyone?).

Would you trust a country with a nuke that has never had any experiance with even a power plant?

Irrelevant. They were getting info from the US and training from Russia.

After delays, Iran's first nuclear power plant, Bushehr I reactor was complete with major assistance of Russian government agency Rosatom and
officially opened on 12 September 2011.

Why should we just give them the knowledge when they keep saying over and over again how they want Israel to be obliterated. They say their imam will
do it. They say it should be wiped off the map.

Source please. This has been the most mis-translated part of the "Let's bomb them group".

the middle east. This is why my educated guessing says - Oh Hell No! Why would you give a child a gun? Why would you give an idiot the bomb?

Irrelevant to the discussion. Didn't the US kill a bunch of innocents as well in their "War on Terror"? How do you achieve peace by killing
innocents? If someone killed your entire family but in the aftermath one was a serial killer, would you be happy? The US creates most of the
terrorists that want to attack them.

"What causes the documented high level of civilian casualties -- 3,000 - 3,400 [October 7, 2001 thru March 2002] civilian deaths -- in the U.S.
air war upon Afghanistan? The explanation is the apparent willingness of U.S. military strategists to fire missiles into and drop bombs upon, heavily
populated areas of Afghanistan."

Persia has been a war mongering nation for many a century. I dont dissagree that the US isnt, but most of what we've done was out of protection of
ourselves and others.

You couldn't be more wrong if you tried. Iran leaves other countries alone. The Iraq/Iran war was not an Iranian invasion of Iraq. The U.S. and it's
allies have been meddling in Iran's affairs since before the 1950's, was that for your protection? Or was it for strategic interests? I think the
answer is pretty obvious.

The 1953 Iranian coup d'état (known in Iran as the 28 Mordad coup[3]) was the overthrow of the democratically elected government of Iranian
Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh on 19 August 1953, orchestrated by the intelligence agencies of the United Kingdom and the United States under the
name TPAJAX Project.[4] The coup saw the transition of Mohammad-Rezā Shāh Pahlavi from a constitutional monarch to an authoritarian one who relied
heavily on United States support to hold on to power until his own overthrow in February 1979.[5]

In 1951, Iran's oil industry was nationalized with near-unanimous support of Iran's parliament in a bill introduced by Mossadegh who led the
nationalist parliamentarian faction. Iran's oil had been controlled by the British-owned Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC).[6] Popular discontent with
the AIOC began in the late 1940s, a large segment of Iran's public and a number of politicians saw the company as exploitative and a vestige of
British imperialism.[7] Despite Mosaddegh's popular support, Britain was unwilling to negotiate its single most valuable foreign asset, and
instigated a worldwide boycott of Iranian oil to pressure Iran economically.[8] Initially, Britain mobilized its military to seize control of the
Abadan oil refinery, the world's largest, but Prime Minister Clement Attlee opted instead to tighten the economic boycott[9] while using Iranian
agents to undermine Mosaddegh's government.[10] With a change to more conservative governments in both Britain and the United States, Churchill and
the U.S. Eisenhower administration decided to overthrow Iran's government though the predecessor U.S. Truman administration had opposed a
coup.[11]

it's funny you say that, reading the Rhenn's last comment I couldn't help but think of Xerxes!

All we need is Leonitus to jump in and scream "This is Sparta!"

Oh man, I wonder how many members actually base their recollection of Persian history on the movie we know as "300"?

I believe it was you who exposed the myth on another thread about how Iran "had to be stopped in the early 1990's" (according to Israel) because they
were very close to acquiring nuclear weapons. I guess they're going to milk this agenda of theirs until the whole Middle East is carpet bombed and ran
by a centralized bank.

I initially fell for the anti-Islamic canard, as well; but then I did some digging of my own, and discovered a couple of things. From the
Qu'ran:-

To every people (was sent) a messenger: when their messenger comes (before them), the matter will be judged between them with justice, and they
will not be wronged. S. 10:47

The worshippers of false gods say: "If Allah had so willed, we should not have worshipped aught but Him - neither we nor our fathers,- nor should
we have prescribed prohibitions other than His." So did those who went before them. But what is the mission of messengers but to preach the Clear
Message? For We assuredly sent amongst every People a messenger, (with the Command), "Serve Allah, and eschew Evil": of the People were some whom
Allah guided, and some on whom error became inevitably (established). So travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who denied (the
Truth). S. 16:35-36

To every people did We appoint rites (of sacrifice), that they might celebrate the name of Allah over the sustenance He gave them from animals
(fit for food). But your god is One God: submit then your wills to Him (in Islam): and give thou the good news to those who humble themselves,- S.
22:34

To every People have We appointed rites and ceremonies which they must follow: let them not then dispute with thee on the matter, but do thou
invite (them) to thy Lord: for thou art assuredly on the Right Way. S. 22:67

The security of God is equal for all groups,[22]
Non-Muslim members have equal political and cultural rights as Muslims. They will have autonomy and freedom of religion.[23]
Non-Muslims will take up arms against the enemy of the Ummah and share the cost of war. There is to be no treachery between the two.[24]
Non-Muslims will not be obliged to take part in religious wars of the Muslims.[25]

In other words, any Muslim who takes the life of a sincere adherent of any other religion, is him or herself a heretic according to their own
theology; because said theology states that other ethnic groups have been sent revelatory communication, which is spiritually legitimate.

So do not fear them. I do not believe that Islam has the right to conquer the planet, as some of its' adherents believe; but at the same time, I do
believe that the religion has spiritual legitimacy, for those for whom it was meant. I am entirely happy to let Muslims have their own faith, but I
will insist that they allow me to have mine; and I am convinced that I would have their own Prophet's support in such an appeal.
